Very welcoming and lovely service. Great selection of home made cake. Had cappuccino and huge piece of delicious carrot cake. Sat outside & watched the world go by!

The food is delicious and there are outside tables under the porch. So you can sit and watch the world go by while having a cuppa.

I visited here this afternoon, the lady that owns the establishment was lovely, really attentive! It has an assortment of coffees, made to order and served in a generous sized mug, there's also several food options, fresh baked onion quiches assortment of sandwiches, toasties all made to order. A Variety of homemade cakes and sweet treats are also available, served with cream or custard at a steal of a price, I was recommended a cherry cake today and it was, warm moist and beautiful. The coffee was the best I've tasted, a lot more value for money than your usual Greggs, Starbucks or Costa coffee.
I will be back as often as I can, the service, the coffee and food was unbelievable. 6*

Excellent coffee and Russian apple pie or Russian Kartoshka are my favourites. I use on a regular basis

Lovely hot chocolate and bacon/egg sandwich. They do more but that's all I wanted. Nice freshly made sandwich. Comfortable seating and very friendly atmosphere.

This is a lovely little cafe that we found while passing through Pontypool. Irina is a lovely lady who cooks everything fresh daily, coffee and cake we ordered was lovely. it is also very dog friendly. Would recommend it and will call in again if we are in the area.

Lovely little cafe, greeted and order taken. No problem with me eating my own gluten free snack. Like most Coeliacs I usually have something in my bag to go with a coffee but not all cafés are happy for you to eat it. Really good coffee, my husband had a delicious iced expresso cake. Said goodbye to us which was great.

Reasonable prices, but the place feels cramped especially downstairs near the counter.

A lovely small cafe in the market square run by a lovely Russian lady who has class. we had her apple cake and lemon drizzle- both were of a high standard. Although being Russian she can make a really good cappuchino as well!

The Market Square Coffee House is a little gem. It is certainly the best place in the whole of Torfaen to have proper coffee and fresh home-made cakes and pastries. Having no blaring music is a bonus. The Russian lady owner is really lovely as well as very professional. A real one-off enterprise which deserves to thrive.

Market Square Coffee House is great value for money and the food and coffee tastes great. Today I tried the pancakes, they certainly didn't disappoint. They were light and fluffy just as intended. I am not sure if the are different from british pancakes, they are definitely worth a try though.
